Socialists like to create crisis hoaxes to get government to give grant funds to their Liberal cronies in the Universities. In turn these professors promote the hoax to get the money.

In the 1960s, the favorite hoax was global overpopulation and famine. But the global population has since quadrupled and starvation isn’t an unsustainable problem. They are never held accountable, but cynicism is rampant.
